“…Webb’s photographs deliver a kind of broken hearted lyricism we don’t see very often; she lets her grief come through unfiltered and the landscapes are infused with her numbed sorrow. It is indeed her Dakota, a place where genuine personal emotion has seeped into the land.”–from DLK Collection review of “My Dakota” at Ricco/Maresca Gallery.
